When we first saw Clara, she immediately conjured a crackling fire in the fireplace, candles on the mantel, ornaments glinting, hot cocoa all around, and grandpa sitting on the edge of his favorite chair telling the children the legend of the Nutcracker. This reversible Clara doll is wonderful for storytelling and imaginative games. On one side, the doll is the pretty heroine from the Nutcracker Suite, with a lovely sweet expression, blonde pin curls, a taffeta dress and her little Nutcracker doll in hand. Flip her over and her hero, the Prince, appears, wearing his Nutcracker mask, velvet uniform and stately saber. Rat King, you've met your match!
